Can only speak for 190 Bos FO....reserve grid has turned very green for May with all the hiring they’ve done. I’m talking 10 to 15 Reserves over the buffer on every weekend. Whether that stays the same with summer approaching is another thing, but still I haven’t seen the grid that green in a long time. So yes...if you’re a new-hire on reserve today that’s Flica saavy, you could swap and probably get most weekends off.
Global open time isn’t active per the CBA yet to pick up trips in other bases. There will be restrictions when it does become active in terms of the open time going to in-domicile pilots first. We’ll see how it works.
